Your turbo very well could be on the way out. It does happen, unfortunately. Sometimes, the initial assessment may make you think it's a turbo issue, but it can actually turn out to be an injector issue, as well. And the Detroits prior to the DD13/15/16 are, unfortunately, the ones least familiar to me, but if it's using a variable geometry turbo or a wastegate system, your issue may lie there, as well. The simple fact is that you really can't be given an accurate diagnosis on this remotely... it has to be hands on. If you don't know how to troubleshoot and repair it, a shop will be your only option. If you're in the Denver area, I can take my ProLink and pull DTCs to see if there's any codes related to it, but I can't tell you for certain what the problem is - especially not knowing what year and what emissions standards that engine was built to - from afar.

Call any Freightliner/Sterling/Western Star dealership, or any diesel repair shop certified to work on Detroit Diesel motors, and they can tell you exactly what your fault codes mean.
